Excellent 500 Sundancer! Spacious, impressive interior! Elegance on the water.
For sale: A well-equipped 1996 Sea Ray 500 Sundancer, a true classic in luxury performance cruising. Built on a deep-V hull with prop pockets for a smoother ride and better fuel efficiency, this Sundancer is packed with thoughtful features that set it apart.
This spacious express cruiser combines timeless styling with powerful performance, making it perfect for entertaining, extended cruising, or simply enjoying weekends on the water.
At 50 feet, it offers a lavish cockpit with abundant seating/day bed, a wet bar, and easy access to the swim platform for water activities. Below deck, you'll find a beautifully appointed salon with an open layout, two staterooms with private heads, a full galley, and plenty of storage for longer trips. The expansive salon is an inviting, grand area with plush Ultraleather sofas, nearly 7 feet of headroom, and a built-in TV setup.
Three air conditioners aboard keep the salon and staterooms at a nice temperature when needed and the galley is well suited for meal prep at any location.
Powered by twin diesel engines, this yacht delivers smooth handling at speed. With its solid construction, sleek profile, and thoughtfully designed interior, the Sea Ray 500 Sundancer remains one of the most sought-after models in its class.
